ABOVE: I got a good deal done last night! I am using up some long strips of fabric that was left over from the quilt I made Brylee 2 years ago, that's why I have the colourful horizontal sashings different from the blue sashings.... I'm hoping it ends up looking OK.

I am amazed that the blocks are lining up so well... usually I stuff that up! I can't see a wonky line yet... but give me time... there's 4 more rows to add on yet! lol

Now, as for today: well, we need to go to Sylvia Park for more of me pills.... but that's about all. I will work on the quilt no doubt... and his nibs can potter around the house and yard and entertain the kids....

ONWARD...

ABOVE: phew! Almost finised the top, it just needs to be made a tad wider .... Stew's had a shit morning. The cross trainer broke down so Stew has spent ages trying to fix it. I think he has... time will tell.

Off out and about soon, need to stretch the legs after sitting all morning sewing...

Been out, got a few bits 'n' bobs... nothing else happening really.Having spare ribs done on the BBQ tonight, my mouth is drooling just thinking about them ribs! They have been marinating in a Chinese Honey marinade.... oOOOOOOOoooooo, yum!
